THE TRUTH IN FEELINGS

Love is just like biting into something soft
That offers a tiny sweetness on the tongue
As a taste that one shall forever recognise
Reminiscent of candy with hint of aniseed
A modest surprise, yet is welcome indeed
As you’ll savour it when closing your eyes
It speaks of all years, not just when young
And somehow, may raise your heart aloft

There are the many senses involved in love
The scent that never ever will be forgotten
And whispered words that would say it all
Touch and taste, like from a lingering kiss
And what opened eyes see, defies analysis
On hearing the music, one heeds the call
The sixth sense is real, like genuine cotton
It’s a cold hand slipping into a warm glove
